N' effort to ayrcipria.e to them-elves the name of Dentocrius, will ever succeed. The .Federal, or whig- party. and tee Democratic patty, are, and w ill forever ro a tia sei•••,-.oe aid distinct."

That party has undergoae no char:. in seariment ; and as vele.trreatly . de Apise Cie litieral aid progressive domino of "equal rights," now as tl. ey did in the days of the elder Ad. ions, They seem to be aware that their piaci*s are held in detestation by the great mass of the people. hence;,they try to conceal their deformity--; yet the long eais , will occasionally wick out. It is not oxen that they more unwittingly expose thetil selves that 'was doae, recently. in an artiele pub lished the Athens Banner. Ga.. said to be a Dent ocratic paper. a' u l copied into the Bradford Argus of last week. The Argus reTartlis the article as tri umphant evidence that Gen. Taylor is not a Demo crat. It tlatly asserts that the old Generab •• is a member of - the Ink , party, and, of Coarse an un lit represcotaive of Democratic principles, - It is alleged in the article alluded to, that • the farthpst the General ever went in favor of Demcicracy, was to intimate thatja President should enforce a "strict observance date ConAitution.” ' . • The Argus, admitting this difference, copies the aeicle as an admission, by a Democratic paper. that General Taylor is not a Democrat. No man, therefor. it is admitted, caa be a Democrat. unless he is in favor of a strict observance of the Consti tution—that no man entertaining wino . . or Federal principles can truly represent Democracy. Why will not our neighbor Argus always keep this dif ference before the people ? Why will it of tell the people that the right to establish. a Nlional Bank. and a thousand other projects of national en terprise are grounds of difference between the two parties, as to the power of the government. under the Constitution.—That tbe Democratic . party are for a strict road/whoa of that instrument, - while the Federalists as they ever have been, are foi a liberal construction. or drawing power from it by inference. Let this difference, and the honest ditk;rmice be tween the two parties,upon all impoitanbquestions, be kept co:lSt:may and fairly before the people, and the feVral party would be' spared the miserable necessity of seeking refuzeips.. The Presidency. . We notice a movement in several states for the next Presidency, We are yet unable to leant whe ther it is a piovement of one or both parties - for the same man. This quelion is now undergoing dis cussion between thoseimmediateljeinterested. One side. avers it tp be a Detnecratic movement for Gen.• Taylor, because the Gen. is a democrat die other side aXers it, to be a whig movement, and that *the Gen. is a whig of the old school. This is the issue ; a very plain one too; but we suppose the is.sue in filet, is only between the combatants, and with them it is a question of great irnportince, neither more nor less, than if the Gen. is elected,- who shall have the spoils. We apprehend from the anomalous char:tom of those concerned.- the blending of sn Many hues, streaked or striped, that there will be no difficulty in adjusting all difficulties, on thebasis of sWare and share alike : and the candidate baptized the 1 - People's candidate." But whether Gen. Tay ler will countenance such a scheme of rascality, there can be but `rare opinion. It seems to us that hj trill promptly rebuke the conspiracy; that he is a man of such sterling integrity and fervent patriot ism, that no set of men ran peak° game of him. It is impossible for any. man to be elevated to the Pre sidency, who has no settled 'convictions as to the principles on which the government should be ad ministered. No party, nor the pimple irrespective of party would agree to this. If Gen. Taylor con sents to Ire the nominee of the whig awhig party, or the democratic party, it in either case, amount to a clerlamtit.e of principle: If. howexer, he can suit neither party, in order that he may be acceptable to a portion of both. they must know his principles: otherwise they have no common groUnd to occupy. or meet upon. Let us wait the development of this matter. It must be made‹and when made. then it will be time enough to canvass the Gen.'s' claims to democracy or whit.. , gery. We think the General has served his country too well, and is too deserv ing to be bamboozled about by hn.-kster politicians : and if some of those who have been itulifiifigable to nominate him tints prematurely, is any. indica tion of the company tire Gen. keeps, *we have our private opinion of his stripe. Our public opinion is. that if the Gen. should be judged,. by some of those who art anxious to keep 11:s company, that he would be very much abused. Gen. Taylor's name, however, is 'bamboozled about by politicians in this state, in mare than one way. We have looked on with kurrittsement, at the sangnine exertions of the whip to make capital otit of the General's Ulaggery„ for the fall election...— They took it for granted that the people would go blind fit Irvin. if it could only be made out that the same party which were in favor,of Hrevesv FRANK Saralt were opposed to Irvin and Taylor. Of course the people would go for W. Irvin, because he is a whig. and so is the Hero of Buena Vista. But it turns nut like the old woman's bread, which a-as all dough.: The Geri. has written a letter by which it seems thatle is as much a democrat at whig, with no pn-tension to either. - SoMr. Irvin must gi; along on his own hook, rte vre presume the Heroof Buena Vista prefers he shianid do. - Mr:CLAT was recently baptized, in a small lake on his nwn farm, and has naked with the Epi6co pal church. • Federal 1111sail6r.

Patria, of the 3d inst., publishes an extract from an editorial article, in the Madrid Herald() of the 26th April, on the subject of the war between the United States and Mexico, which is not a little interesting, from the candor and ability with which it is written. The writer. afbor com mencing on the victory (ns the Mexican to-count made it appear? at Angostura or Simms Vista, which the Mexicans, under Santa Anna had obtain ed over General Taylor, news of which had just Nen received, expresses his conviction, that not withstanding this temporary Faeces:4, 'Mexico was doomed to fall in the struzgle, and her name to be razed - from the list of nations. It is, aecordin* to him, a wax of races, which could only terminate in the cc mplete overthrow of the Spanish, by the victorious Anglo-Saxons. Lamenting, as a descen dant from the contrnon stock of Spaniards and Mai cans, this sad destiny - of the ancient kingdom of Montezuma, he says nothing else could ,have been expected, seeing the constant occurrence of revo lu:ions in that unhappy country, whose natural ef fect was to unsettle men's mind, and revolve the whole social system into its primeval demotes, causing the total neglect of every thing calculated to raise the standard of intelligence and industry therein. The clergy are severely reproved for their selfsh ness, in not parting with a portion of their immense wealth to support the national cause. • The course of the United States is then commented on. The writer points to the rapidity with which this coun try has increased in every element of commercial and political :realness ,' The European nations are warned against our gigaraie power, which is rapid ly aeqUiring such extraordinary size, that the most powerful nations in the Old Continent are but figures in comparison. The United States, accord. ing to the Spanish editor, is destined to acquire the dominion• of the seas: she will monopolize the corn metre of the world : and no human power can pre vent Cuba and the West India group of islands from falling into her power, since they will there by obey the force of niesistable • attraction.—N. 0.
